Matt Peca had a point for the eighth straight game, helping Quinnipiac extend their unbeaten streak to 21 games. He was assessed a 10-minute misconduct as the game ended. Peca is second in team scoring behind senior Jeremy Langlois (undrafted) at 26. With Minnesota’s loss to St. Cloud State, Quinnipiac could move into the No. 1 slot in next week’s USCHO poll.

St. Cloud State padded their lead over Minnesota in the WCHA standings with a 4-3 loss over Adam Wilcox and the No. 1 Gophers on Saturday night. Wilcox suffered his fourth loss of the season. The Huskies lead the WCHA by three points over North Dakota and five points over the Gophers and Nebraska-Omaha.
